Because he's a shitty QB.

I mean the thing with RG3 and Gibbs is I doubt they were in the locker room preaching the word of God. They were/are probably all football when it counted. What they do when their teammates aren't around and the cameras are off is their business.

Everyone knows Gibbs is a devout Christian but on the field and in the locker room he was a Hall of Fame coach.

I don't know what Gano did or didn't do but the moral of the story was it must've been upsetting to the some of the players. Gano wasn't that great of a kicker anyway. Religious beliefs or not, I don't think him getting cut was a huge loss. (Minus the fact we ended up with Cundiff )

Re: Should Billy Cundiff still be cut!

My feelings are mixed. Almost every single player thanks god as part of a celebration after a big play. I'm a religious person but I find it absurd and distracting. But the point is, it's hypocritical for players to be upset at one guy for talking about religion privately amongst the team when the same players make showy displays and point to heaven after a touchdown in front of 100 million people. What I'm getting at is football is overwhelmingly religious as it is. People should just be more tolerant. If gano is the best kicker available, it shouldn't matter what he believes or how much he talks about it. Judge him on his play and nothing else....

That said, for all we know gano is some freak bringing snakes into the locker room and trying to get team mates to sacrifice chickens before every game lol

Re: Should Billy Cundiff still be cut!

Seems like a lot of the Redskins I follow on Twitter are "openly religious", so this doesn't make much sense at all.

Matty seems to me ,no matter who your team is, whenever a placekicker makes an attempt...everyone prays......one way or another.

Re: Should Billy Cundiff still be cut!

Gano is pretty hard core conservative and maybe not the most "open-minded" person from what I know...but again, according to them, not the reason he was let go and not the reason he's not coming back.

Re: Should Billy Cundiff still be cut!

Al Michaels on 980? Anyway, I don't know what to tell you. It's no secret MS doesn't like Gano, like he didn't like Atogwe. And it's not secret Gano is conservative/religious. But I asked "did you say Gano was cut and isn't coming back because he's too religious and it bothers the team" I can ask again

I definitely lose alot of respect for him for denying he said something on live radio. If you listen to it, its obvious he was uncomfortable talking about it. Maybe he broke someones confidence and is trying to do damage control.

Dude can you lose that quote or put it under the quote line? It is annoying; it shows up on Taptalk too. I am tired of reading it; thinking it is part of your post.
